Listen to Radio 1. This is the BBC's pop music station. The channel was born out of the Pirate Pop Stations of the 1960's. All the DJs and of Radio Caroline etc migrated straight over the the new BBC Radio 1 when it started broadcasting on September 30, 1967

Listen to Radio 2. The BBC says "Amazing music. Played by an amazing line-up. The home of great music, entertainment and documentaries". We would say mostly non classical music for the 30 plus age group!

Listen to Radio 3. Classical music - all of it including modern classical music. Personally go to Classic FM for the classics and things I might know. Watch out for Composers of the week). You might get a whole week of Beethoven or someone really good at music! (Go on write in and tell me off!) The great thing is that everything is on Radio 3. You can always switch over.

Listen to Radio 4. For those who don't know Radio 4 is essentially one of the few purely speech based channels not only in the UK but the world. It has an extraordinary reputation for quality news, current affairs, drama, culture and comedy programming. Don't forget that you can catchup on BBC Iplayer if you miss something - See more at: http://master.2day.uk/section/Radio#sthash.YMRYyUwu.dpuf

Initially Classic FM. was a 'really popular' classical music introduced by actors with throat problems. Additionally many of the performances played were 'racey'. However that has all changed. The people introducing the music now often know about it - and don't seem to have throat issues. The performances can be great and the music is usually more accessible than that on BBC Radio 3. You will get used to the ads?
